Well I just got some definite proof that I'm allergic to my old goose
feather duvet. Rather sensibly, I was snuggled under it to fight off the
plague I've currently got and I couldn't stop coughing. I kick off the
extra half that I'd hastly pulled over to increase the tog level and I
suddenly stop coughing. Hopefully I'll have the energy tomorrow to sort my
room out and swap over to the new anti-allergy bedding.

ION, I went to GameSoc's first meeting on the year. Started off a bit
farsical as the location details had changed yet again. It'd gone from
meeting in the Beehive, to meeting in the Beehive with a brief visit to
Medicine first so students could be shown where the pub was and then they
swapped the Beehive for the Armstrong Gun. The latter change was cos wychboy had mentioned that a pagan soc meet there on Mondays. Since I
was running a tad late, I decided to skip Medicine and head straight to the
AG. After waiting well beyond the time they were due to arrive, I got the
feeling that maybe they'd changed their mind and decided to stay in
Medicine. Which was shortly proved correct as one of the committee showed
up to usher people back on to campus. Bah.

Once I'd actually found the others it went quite well. Lots of fresh
blood. Didn't really get to talk to that many people as we were all crammed
around one table playing card games. Medicine is a whole lot nicer than
it's previous incarnation. It's got lots of lighting and a HUGE bar in the
middle. And lots more seating. Apparently it's a bit of a meat market, but
I pointed out that Uni was generally like that anyway.

Have you tried washing the duvet? People don't realsie that goose feathers being organic harbour lots of bugs and dust if not washed once a year. you need to take it to a launderette where they haev facilities large enough to deal with huge duvet. It may just be the dirt and dust (whicyh is highly allergenic - esp to people with ezcema) Try again when it is clean, hopefully you will have no issues and can snuggle to your hearts content.

The rest of my family are allergic to feathers and fur and so far I know
I'm allergic to fur, so it figures that I'm allergic to feathers too.
Probably does need a wash as well though, which is why it's affecting me as
badly as it is. But I'll soon have anti-allergy everything on the bed, so
it'll not be an issue.

I was led to believe there were some roleplayers there, but I only really
got to talk to a guy who wasn't interested in such things and only liked
playing board and card games. It should be easier to talk to people about
such things at the regular gaming meetings I think.

Or there is the GameSoc bulletin
where people have been posting up requests for players. We've already got a
thread on there for the Cam stuff, although people are more interested in
Requiem rather than Mage *pout*
